Masked gunman robs gas station

A worker at the Arco station on West Main Street near Interstate 8 called El Cajon police about 3:35 a.m. to report having been robbed, Lt. Mike Moulton said.

The holdup man, who carried a black revolver, was described as white or Latino, 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall, and thin, wearing a black ski mask, a black sweat shirt and blue jeans. He took off with the cash drawer, Moulton said.
